After this comic ran, I heard from more than one reader informing me that Gandhi had no problem with guns. That may be true. I’ve done minimal research on the web, and found sites claiming both that he was for and against guns.

I stand by this comic’s central premise, however: that Gandhi owning a fancy silver-plated six-shooter with ivory handles engraved “The Passive Resister” would have been, at best, off-brand.
